I've got two test boxes running 2312 and Lucent cards.  After some trial and
error, the two will talk back and forth (192.168.100.0 subnet used for the
wireless cards) and I thought I was ready to get the bridging to work.

The bridged network is 192.168.1.0 (/25 if that matters).  I have a bering
box between the LAN and the Internet.  I've set the bering box as the
default gateway on both wisp boxes.  Both boxes have the gateway device set
as the 'closest' device to the bering gateway.  So the local wisp uses eth0
and the remote uses netcs0.

I plugged a notebook into the 'remote' wisp box and can ping it
successfully.

The wisp boxes have different IP's on all interfaces, on the subnets noted
above.  In both cases, the eth0 port shows up as the default route for
192.168.1.0/25.

The problem I have is that the routing table seems to be updated
incorrectly... and I can't find what triggers the problem.  Essentially, I
don't always get the route entry appearing with the correct interface.  That
is, the remote wisp as an example will update the route table to use eth0
for a target located on the other side of the bridge.  It seems that if the
connection is initiated from the main LAN, the tables are configured
correctly.  But if the notebook in the remote end initiates a connection,
the routing table is incorrect.  I can manually change the table and have it
work, so the basics are there.

I notice some occurrences in the arp table of the same IP twice, with the
second entry shown as "incomplete" if that helps.

I'm betting I'm missing something simple here, but I can't see it!  What
specific information can I provide to troubleshoot this?

Thanks,
